« on: April 27, 2024, 02:06:55 am »

Had a road trip today to pick ip my latest acquisition.
 What appears to be
Bing 1912  Extra kraftiger  Heissluftmotor  135/32

Bing 1912. Extra powerful Hot air motor  135/32

Base tin is 36.5 cm by 20 cm

Only issue is see is the height should be 35 cm but mine is 40 cm tin to top or 42 cm including wood base
 Also in the Bing 1912 catalogue is 180 degrees out to mine
The chimney diameter at base is 5 cm

This should clean up very well. I'm not sure what that means, the Bing catalog is 180 degrees out to mine.
But I wouldn't complain too much about the stack being longer. Don't nip the tip! ;D

Congratulations for acquiring this amazing Bing hot air engine. Height is not an issue; you’re very lucky to have stack with it. I would focus on adjusting the cooling fins spacing, and treating the firebox rust by stopping corrosion progression.

These are very powerful hot air engines.

I also have this model.

Looking forward to seeing a video of it running.

 My plan. Is chimney and fire box is clean derust and possibly heatproof flat black paint  .
 Flywheel rim derust and light oil . Rest is just gently clean . Space fins evenly

Cheers

Catalogues usually are mirror images that flip orientation.
Mine has the same orientation as yours.
